Best Quotes
Peter Parker: Alright, let’s do this one last time. My name is Peter Parker. I was bitten by a radioactive spider. And for ten years, I’ve been the one and only Spider-Man. I’m pretty sure you know the rest.
Uncle Ben: [flashback to young Peter with his uncle] With great power comes great responsibility.
Peter Parker: [moviequotesandmore.com] I saved a bunch of people, fell in love, saved the city. And then I saved the city again. And again, and again, and again. And I did this.
Peter Parker: [we see him dancing and singing in the street] We don’t really talk about this. Look, I’m a comic book. I’m a cereal. I did a Christmas album. I have an excellent theme song. And a so-so popsicle. I mean, I’ve looked worse. But after everything, I still love being Spider-Man. I mean, who wouldn’t? So no matter how many hits I take, I always find a way to come back. Because the only thing standing between this city and oblivion is me. There’s only one Spider-Man. And you’re looking at him.
News Reporter: There are multiple reports of another mysterious seismic event last night. Sources close to Spider-Man say he’s looking into the problem.

Miles Morales: [referring to the costume] Can I return it if it doesn’t fit?
Stan: It always fits, eventually.
Peter B. Parker: [after getting Miles knocks Peter out unconscious] Alright, people, let’s do this one last time. My name is Peter B. Parker. I was bitten by a radioactive spider. And for the last twenty-two years, I thought I was the one and only Spider-Man. I’m pretty sure you know the rest. You see, I saved the city, fell in love, I got married, saved the city some more, maybe too much. My marriage got testy, made some dicey money choices. Don’t invest in a spider-themed restaurant. Then like fifteen years passed. Blah, blah, blah. Super boring. I broke my back, a drone flew into my face, I buried Aunt May. My wife and I split up. But I handled it like a champion.
[we see him in his costume, sitting under his shower, crying]
Peter B. Parker: [moviequotesandmore.com] Because, you know what, no matter how many times I get hit, I always get back up. And I got a lot of time to reflect and work on myself. Did you know that seahorses, that they mate for life? Could you imagine a seahorse seeing another seahorse, and then making it work? She wanted kids and, and it scared me. I’m pretty sure I broke her heart.
[we see him in his apartment with a bloated belly, eating pizza]
Peter B. Parker: Flash-forward, I’m in my apartment doing push-ups, doing ab crunches, getting strong, when this weird thing happened. And I got to say, weird things happen to me a lot. But this was real weird. You see, I was in New York, but things were different. Also, I was dead, and blond. I was kind of perfect. It was like looking in a mirror. I have a feeling that the thing that brought me here was the thing that got him killed. You want to know what happened next? Me, too.
Miles Morales: Why do you look like Peter Parker?
Peter B. Parker: Because I am Peter Parker.
Miles Morales: Then why aren’t you dead? And why is your hair different? Why are you older? And why is your body a different shape?
Peter B. Parker: I’m pretty sure you just called me fat.
Miles Morales: No. No, you just…
Peter B. Parker: Hey, listen. You don’t look so hot either, kid. Most superheroes don’t wear their own merch.
Miles Morales: Are you a ghost?
Peter B. Parker: No.
Miles Morales: Are you a zombie?
Peter B. Parker: Stop it.
Miles Morales: Am I a zombie?
Peter B. Parker: You’re not even close.
Miles Morales: Are you from another dimension? Like a parallel universe where things are like this universe but different? And you’re Spider-Man in that universe? But somehow traveled to this universe, but you don’t know how?
Peter B. Parker: Wow. That was really just a guess?
Miles Morales: Well, we learned about it in physics.
Peter B. Parker: Quantum theory.
Miles Morales: This is amazing!
Miles Morales: [as Peter glitches and falls] Hey, are you okay?
Peter B. Parker: No, I’m not.
Miles Morales: What’s going on with your body?
Peter B. Parker: I don’t think my atoms are real jazzed about being in the wrong dimension. Look, I’m not looking for a side gig as a Spider-Man coach. I got a lot going on in my dimension, like a lot.
Miles Morales: With great power comes great…
Peter B. Parker: Don’t you dare finish that sentence. Don’t do it! I’m sick of it.
Peter B. Parker: Oh, you have a goober. Give it.
Miles Morales: Wait, no. Not so fast. He called it an override key.
Peter B. Parker: There’s always a bypass key, a virus key, a who-cares key. I can never remember, so I always call it a goober. Give it.
Miles Morales: I need it to destroy the collider.
Peter B. Parker: I need it to go home!
Miles Morales: If I don’t turn off the collider after you leave, everyone in this city, my parents, my uncle, and millions of others, will die. And you’re just going to go home and leave me here to figure this out for myself? You good with that, Spider-Man?
Peter B. Parker: Yeah. What are you doing?
Miles Morales: [sinks down in despair] Making you feel guilty. Is it working?
Peter B. Parker: How could it…? No. Look at me. Does it look like it’s working? No. No, it’s not… No! No! No! Do not let him win! Alright, kid. You win. Come on, we don’t have a second to lose.
Peter B. Parker: [moviequotesandmore.com] I love this burger, it’s so delicious. One of the best burgers I’ve ever had. In my universe, this place closed six years ago. I don’t know why. I really don’t. Mmm. You have money, right? I’m not very liquid right now.
Miles Morales: Can we focus?
Peter B. Parker: Mm-hmm. Sure.
Miles Morales: The other Peter…
Peter B. Parker: You going to eat that?
[takes Miles’s burger and starts eating it]
Peter B. Parker: I’m listening.
Miles Morales: The other Peter said he was going to be showing me the ropes.
Peter B. Parker: Wow.
Miles Morales: You got any Spider-Man tips you can tell me now?
Peter B. Parker: Yeah, I got plenty. Disinfect the mask. You’re going to want to use baby powder in the suit, heavy on the joints. You don’t want any chafing, right?
Miles Morales: Anything else?
Peter B. Parker: Nope, that was everything.
Miles Morales: I think you’re going to be a bad teacher.
Peter B. Parker: And it’s a no on the cape.
Miles Morales: I think it’s cool.
Peter B. Parker: Take that off. It’s disrespectful.
[grabs Mile’s cape and tosses it away]
Peter B. Parker: Spider-Man doesn’t wear a cape.
Peter B. Parker: Teenagers, just the worst. Miles, where did you go?
Miles Morales: I’m right here.
Peter B. Parker: Where? I can’t see you.
Miles Morales: I’m right in front of you. Can Spider-Man turn invisible?
Peter B. Parker: Not in my universe.
Miles Morales: Aah! You just poked me in my eye!
Peter B. Parker: This is incredible. Some kind of fight or flight thing.
Miles Morales: What’s that?
[they hear a noise outside the office and Miles turns invisible again]
Doc Ock: [moviequotesandmore.com] And obviously you’ve been glitching.
Peter B. Parker: Glitching? No. Why would you even say that?
Doc Ock: If you stay in this dimension too long, your body’s going to disintegrate. Do you know how painful that would be, Peter Parker?
Peter B. Parker: I don’t know.
Doc Ock: You can’t imagine. And I, for one, can’t wait to watch.
Peter B. Parker: What did you say your name was?
Doc Ock: Dr. Olivia Octavius.
Peter B. Parker: [as as her mechanical octopus tentacles emerge] Can I assume that your friends call you Doc Ock?
Doc Ock: My friends actually call me Liv. My enemies call me Doc Ock.
Peter B. Parker: [as they enter ALCHEMAX cafeteria full of scientists] This would be a good time to turn invisible.
Miles Morales: Yep.
Peter B. Parker: Okay, not going to turn invisible. Selecting a bagel. Act super normal.
Woman: Spider-Man?
Peter B. Parker: You know, that’s funny, I get that a lot.
Miles Morales: Hey.
Man: Spider-Man?
Woman: [all the scientists point their weapons at them] Hey! Hands up!
Peter B. Parker: [to Miles] Now we do a switchy-switchy.
[he takes the drive from Miles and gives him the bagel]
Miles Morales: Huh?
Woman: [as Peter and Miles make a run for it] Get back here! Where do you think you’re going? He took a bagel!
Peter B. Parker: Alright, time to swing, just like I taught you.
Miles Morales: When did you teach me that?
Peter B. Parker: I didn’t. It’s a little joke for team building.
Peter B. Parker: [as the scientists start chasing after them] Alright, are you ready?
Miles Morales: Of course I’m not ready! I can’t do this yet!
Peter B. Parker: Everybody knows that the best way to learn is under intense life threatening crisis.
Peter B. Parker: [after falling to the ground] What are you doing down there?
Miles Morales: I run better than I swing.
Peter B. Parker: You got to swing or they’ll catch you. This is what you wanted.
Peter B. Parker: [teaching Miles to swing with his web] Aim with your hips! Look where you want it to hit. Square your shoulders. Don’t forget to follow through! Don’t shoot off your back foot.
Miles Morales: That’s too many things!
Peter B. Parker: Then stop listening to me!
Miles Morales: That’s the best idea you’ve had all day!
